All Reviews for Snorkeling Cruises & Tours

February 5

On my first overseas trip to Hawaii, I was greeted by Daisuke, a staff member with a bright smile. From the moment we started moving, he shared his love for dolphins and the charm of the Big Island, which got me excited. The fact that there are many whales too made me even more thrilled.

There were 11 Japanese participants, including repeat visitors, and everyone except us was from the Kansai region, making for a lively group.

With Captain Jesse at the helm, we felt the sea breeze and sped through the ocean, which was already an attraction in itself (laughs). Along the way, we encountered manta rays and whales while listening to Daisuke's stories about dolphins, and finally arrived at the dolphin point. We donned fins and snorkels (and wetsuits and floatation devices for those who needed them) and headed into the sea! Looking down, I could clearly see the ocean floor about 15 meters below, illuminated by the sunlight. What a beautiful world.

Following Daisuke's call, I swam toward him and saw many spinner dolphins swimming right beside us, which was such a close encounter! Just as I was soaking in that excitement, the dolphins suddenly made a U-turn and sped off in the opposite direction. After waiting a bit, three bottlenose dolphins appeared. According to Daisuke, the spinner dolphins fled when the "giant" dolphins arrived.

To my surprise, the bottlenose dolphins stayed at the ocean floor, seemingly playing with each other, allowing us to watch them slowly. Daisuke mentioned that such a sight is truly rare in Hawaiian waters. It was an amazing experience to have such a rare encounter.

I highly recommend this tour if you come to the Big Island. One thing to note is that practicing snorkeling in advance can enhance your enjoyment even more.

I will definitely repeat this experience!

初めての海外とハワイ旅行、スタッフである朝晴れやかな笑顔のだいすけさんに迎えに来てもらえ、移動中からイルカ大好き&ハワイ島の魅力を教えてもらえ、ワクワク。
クジラも沢山いるね～ってことで更にワクワク。

リピーターを含めた11名の日本人、僕ら以外が全員関西の方だったので賑やかなメンバーとなりました。

船長のジェシーの運転で、海風を浴び、爽快に海を突き進む、もうこれだけでアトラクション(笑)
途中にマンタや鯨に出会いながら、だいすけさんのイルカの話を聞きながら、いよいよイルカポイントに到着。
フィンとシュノーケル(必要な人はウエットスーツと浮具)を纏いいざ海へ！
下を除くと15mくらいの海の底がはっきり見え、ふりそそぐ太陽の光。
なんて美しい世界。

こっちだよ～ だいすけさんの呼ぶ方へついていってみると、沢山のハシナガイルカが何頭も自分たちの横をすり抜けていく、こんな近くに来てくれるんだ～♪くらいに。そんな感動に浸っていると急にイルカがUターン。
ものすごいスピードで反対方向に向かっていきました。
少し待っていると、三頭のバンドウイルカ、だいすけさん曰く、ジャイアンイルカ、ハシナガイルカはジャイアンが来たら逃げていったんだそう。

そのバンドウイルカがなんと、海の底に留まって休憩、お互いにじゃれているように見えましたが、ゆっくりイルカの姿を眺めることができました｡
ハワイの海では本当に珍しい奇跡のようなことだそう。
こんなレア体験ができて最高でした。

ハワイ島に来たらこのツアーをオススメします。
注意点としては、シュノーケルを事前に練習しておけると、より楽しむことができると思います☺️

またリピートするぞ！

I didn't know that the Heaven's Sea tour had to be booked in advance, and after regretting it for a few years, I finally went back for a revenge trip.

As a result, I had a really great time! I’ve always liked turtles, but even my wife, who isn’t a fan, was excited when she saw them. Turtles are so cute!

Since it was early February, it was a bit cold on the boat when it was cloudy, but the sun came out, so it was manageable. The water was honestly cold, but once you get used to it, you can tolerate it. They offered free wetsuit rentals.

I thought I could manage with just a regular hoodie, but since you wear a suit in the water and walk on the sand for about 30 minutes, marine shoes would be better. Some people got hurt on their feet.

At the sandbar, wearing a T-shirt is actually warmer, but for photos, swimsuits might look warmer and more picturesque.

The boat ride was slow, about 10 minutes, so personally, I didn't need motion sickness medication. However, it was a very windy day, so if you're unsure, it might be a good idea to have some. (They sell motion sickness medication and sandals at a reasonable price.)

I wish I had bought an underwater camera. I never expected turtles to come so close! Well, since they swim in shallow water, you can still take good photos from above the water.

Once you get out of the water, it’s cold, so having a larger bath towel would be good. The BBQ on the boat was quite delicious.

There were about three staff members, including the guide, and we were able to play beach volleyball together with others. That was a lot of fun!

They were very considerate of small children and the elderly, showing great hospitality. You can feel safe bringing your parents along.

There were also people doing other marine activities, and they offered free rentals.

Snorkeling is easy to practice, so even those who are not good at it can give it a try. Even if you don’t snorkel, you can see turtles at the sandbar, so it’s okay to take it easy.

Thank you to all the staff! Aloha!

天国の海はツアーでないといけないのを知らず、以前は悔しい思いをして数年、リベンジで行ってきました。

結果、行って本当に楽しかったです！
元から亀は好きでしたが、亀好きでない奥さんでも、見たときは興奮していました。
亀ってかわいいですね。

2月初旬なので、曇ったら船上は寒いのはありますが、太陽も出てきてなんとかなりました。
海の中は正直冷たく、慣れれば一応我慢はできるレベル。ウェットスーツの無料貸出もしていました。
普通のパーカーでなんとかなると思って軽く見てましたが、海中でも着れるスーツや、砂の上を30分ほど歩くので、マリンシューズがあればベターです。足に怪我する人もいたので。

サンドバーではTシャツを着てたほうが実際寒くないですが、写真では水着のほうが暖かそうで絵になるかも。

船はジェットでもなくゆっくりで、10分ほどなので、酔い止めは個人的には不要です。
風がかなり強い日で、自信がない人はあったほうがいいかも。
(酔い止めわサンダル等、有料でそこまで高くない価格で販売はしています)

水中カメラは買っておけばよかったです。あそこまで目の前に亀が来るなんて思ってもなかったので。まあ、浅瀬を泳いでるので、海の上からでもちゃんと撮れますが。

海から上がったら寒いので、大きめのバスタオルもあったほうが良いです。
船上のBBQも、なかなか美味しかったです。

ガイドさん含め3人ほどスタッフがいましたが、他の人たちも含め、一緒にビーチバレーできました。これがかなり楽しかったです！

小さいお子さんや老人への配慮もしっかりしていて、ホスピタリティーあります。親を連れてきても安心できますね。

他のマリンアクティビティーをしている人もおり、無料で貸し出ししていました。

シュノーケリングは無理なく練習できるので、苦手な人もいけると思います。シュノーケリングをしなくとも、サンドバー上で亀も見れますし、無理せずOK

スタッフのみなさん、有難うございました！
アローーーハー！

I participated in this tour before and had a great experience, so I invited a friend to try it as well. The weather was nice, and the turtles were swimming comfortably, making me realize that I am currently in Oahu. The food was delicious, and I recommend it. It's safer to have motion sickness medication on hand.

このツアーは以前にも参加して良かったので友人を誘いましてトライしまし。
天気も良く、カメも気持ち良く泳いでいて、このツアーでオワフ今いるんだなと実感できます。
食事も美味しいのですすめです、船酔いの薬はあった方が安全ですね。

The sight of three manta rays gracefully rising from the seabed and swirling around in a mesmerizing dance under the fantastical light was truly beautiful and moving. They came up close to us repeatedly, creating an unforgettable experience.

The rental for wetsuits was $10 for adults and $5 for children. I was honestly worried that it might be too cold to endure during this winter season in Hawaii, but thanks to the wetsuits, it wasn't as cold as I expected, and the 40 minutes flew by.

We participated as a family of five across three generations: my mother (68), my husband (44), myself (40), my daughter (16), and my son (10), and everyone was extremely satisfied! The sunset and starry sky before and after snorkeling were also spectacular. Unlike regular snorkeling, this experience involved simply holding onto a board and floating while observing, so even small children, older adults, and those who are not good swimmers can enjoy it without worry.

幻想的な光の中を3枚のマンタが海底から優雅に上がってきて、グルグルと大きく踊るように回る様子は本当に美しく、感動的な光景でした。
身体に触れる近さで何度も何度も上がってきてくれて、一生忘れられない体験になりました。
ウェットスーツは大人10ドル、子ども5ドルで貸出でした。ハワイでも冬のこの時期、正直寒すぎて耐えられないのではないかと不安だったのですが、ウェットスーツのお陰で思ったよりも寒くなく、あっという間の40分でした。
3世代、母（68歳）、主人（44歳）、私（40歳）、娘（16歳）、息子（10歳）の5人で参加しましたが、全員大満足！
シュノーケリング前後の夕日や星空も見応え満点です。普通のシュノーケリングと違い、ボードに捕まって浮かぶだけの観察なので、小さい子も年配の方も、泳ぎが苦手な方も心配なく楽しめます。

I was able to encounter many dolphins. The Japanese staff, local guides, and photographers all had a wonderful attitude towards entertaining the guests! I hope to enroll again!

多くのイルカ達と遭遇できました。日本人スタッフさんも、現地ガイドさんも、カメラマンさんも、ゲストを楽しませようとするスタンスが素敵でした！再入学希望です！

I was able to see dolphins!!! They were so close, I was surprised!! The staff was also really enthusiastic, and it became the best memory of our honeymoon. Thank you!

イルカ見れました〜！！！すごい近くてびっくりです！！スタッフの方もノリノリでハネムーンの最高の思い出になりました。ありがとうござます！

I was worried about whether I would be able to see any animals since they are wild, but I was surprised to encounter so many dolphins. I was hoping to be lucky and see whales as well, given the season, but unfortunately, I didn't see any.
At this time of year, it can be cold while moving on the boat, so it's better to have something to wear over your clothes.
Next time, I want to challenge myself to see whales.

自然の生き物なので観れるかどうか不安でしたがびっくりするほどたくさんのイルカと出会えました。季節柄クジラも見られるとラッキーだと期待してましたが残念ながら観られませんでした。
いまの時期は船上での移動中は寒いので羽織ものがあった方が良いです。
次はクジラにチャレンジしたいと思ってます。

It was January, but the weather was nice and we had a great time. We saw a lot of sea turtles, and the hamburgers we ate on the beautiful ocean were the best! The sandbar was an experience like no other and was truly moving. The kids enjoyed playing beach volleyball. Our Japanese guide was very fun and showed us various scenic photo spots. The staff was lively, and we had a wonderful time. Even with small children, we were able to enjoy ourselves very much.

1月でしたが、天気も良くすっごく楽しかったです。
ウミガメもたくさん見れたし、天気のいい大海原の上で食べるハンバーガーも最高でした！
サンドバーには今までに体験したことがなく感動しました。子供はビーチバレーをして楽しんでました^_^
日本語のガイドさんもとても楽しい方で、色々な写真の絶景ポイントを教えてもらいました。
スタッフさんもノリノリでとてもいい時間を過ごせました。
小さな子供がいてもとても楽しめました。

I was disappointed that I couldn't see the manta rays, but the Japanese female staff member was very cheerful. She provided thorough explanations about the tour content and the manta rays before it started, and she made sure that all participants understood the information, including the details about the opportunity for a retry since we couldn't see them this time. Watching the sunset and the journey to the point was very enjoyable, and on the way back, she was very considerate, which left a strong impression on me. Although I didn't get to see the manta rays, I felt grateful to have participated in such a wonderful tour.

マンタには会えず残念でしたが、日本人スタッフの女性がとても明るい方で、始まる前のツアー内容やマンタについての案内から今回見れなかったための再チャレンジの案内まで、参加者全員がちゃんと理解できているか確認するように、きちんと説明してくださりました。
サンセットをみて、ポイントまでの移動はとても楽しく、帰りも色々と気を使ってくださり、そのことがとても印象的でマンタは見れませんでしたがとてもいいツアーに参加できてよかったと思いました。

My husband and I participated together. The weather in Honolulu wasn't great, so I was wondering how it would turn out, but Kailua was on the other side of the mountain, and the weather was perfect!

For an additional fee, we rented bikes and went to Lanikai Beach beyond Kailua Beach. It was unbelievably beautiful. The staff member helped us reserve pancakes from Boots & Kimo's, and even though it was takeout, we were able to eat without waiting in line! Shopping at Whole Foods Market and Target was also a breeze on the bike.

I was really happy that we stopped by Leonard's to have malasadas on the way back! Thank you very much.

主人と2人で参加しました。
ホノルルは天気が良くなく、どうなるかと思いましたが、カイルアは山の向こう側だったので、最高の天気でした！

別料金ですが自転車を借りてカイルアビーチの先のラニカイビーチまで行きました。びっくりするほど綺麗でした。
スタッフのお姉さんにブーツアンドギモスのパンケーキも予約して頂き、テイクアウトですが並ばずに食べられました！
Whole Foods Market、targetの買い物も自転車で楽々でした。

帰り道にレナーズのマラサダを食べにお店に寄って頂いたのも本当に嬉しかったです！ありがとうございました。

Last year, I participated in a tour swimming with dolphins from another company, but this time I joined Dolphin University.

On this day, it was quite difficult to find a spot where the dolphin pod was gathering, but once the snorkeling point was confirmed, I enjoyed watching the dolphins swim right by my feet.

During snorkeling, the staff guides you to where the dolphins are, but those who swim slowly might not make it in time. My fourth-grade son was able to keep up easily.

The slide set up from the boat after snorkeling was also fun, and we got to play on it multiple times.

It's a good idea to bring an action cam for underwater filming.

去年は他社のイルカと一緒に泳ぐツアーに参加しましたが、今回はイルカ大学に参加しました。

この日はイルカの群れが集まっている場所がなかなか見つかりませんでしたが、シュノーケリングポイントが確定してからはイルカの群れが足元を泳いでいくのが楽しめました。

シュノーケリング中にイルカのいる場所までスタッフのみなさんが誘導してくれますが、泳ぎの遅い方は間に合わないかもしれません。
小学４年生の息子は余裕で間に合っていました。

シュノーケリング後にボートから設営されるスライダーも楽しく何度も遊ばせてもらいました。

水中で撮影できるアクションカムを持っていくと良いですよ。

I participated in the morning! It was very early, but thanks to Julie's conversation along the way, I arrived at the port without getting bored. One of the most impressive things she said was that we must find Mr. Dolphin!

It actually took about two hours to find him, and most of the boats had given up on seeing Mr. Dolphin, but I persevered and finally saw him! I’m not very comfortable in the ocean, and it was my first time snorkeling, but I managed! The longer I searched, the more I wanted to meet him again. I want to participate again!

I recommend not scheduling anything after the participation because it's nature, and sticking to the schedule can be tough.

On the day, I saw: 1) a manta ray, 2) a sea turtle, 3) two whales, and 4) Mr. Dolphin. I saw the whales more than Mr. Dolphin, probably because it was the season!

Also, for beginners, instead of bringing a camera and risking dropping it in the ocean, I think it's better to take pictures on the boat. The photographer will take pictures in the water, so relying on that is the best option! However, if you do bring a camera, make sure it’s waterproof! Use a waterproof camera or case, and keep your belongings in a waterproof bag! It was quite cold in the morning, so wearing an ultra-light down jacket was just right.

Since you’ll be on the boat for a long time, take precautions against seasickness! However, if you look far away, you won’t get seasick!

Please search hard!

Have a great trip!

わたしは午前に参加しました！朝がとても早かったですが、道中ジュリさんが話し通してくれたので飽きることなく港に到着。その中でイルカ先生を必ず見つける！というのが印象的な言葉でした
実際見つけるまでに２時間ほどかかりましたが、ほとんどの船がイルカ先生を見ることに諦めていましたがねばってやっと見れました！
わたしは海が苦手で、シュノーケリングも初めてでしたがなんとかなりました！
長く探せば探すほど先生に会いたくなります
また参加したいです！
オススメはその参加のとき、後ろに予定を入れないほうがいいとおもいます！自然相手なので時間通りはきついと思います
※私は当日会えたのは①マンタ②ウミガメ③クジラ２頭④イルカ先生
クジラはシーズンだったのかイルカ先生より会えました笑
　
あと、初心者の方は自分でイルカ撮るぞ！とカメラ持っていって海に落とすより、船内で写真を撮るイメージがいいとおもいます。カメラマンが海では撮ってくれるのでそれに頼るほうがベストだと思います笑
ただ、持っていくなら必ず防水対策を！！防水カメラや防水ケースに‥
荷物は防水袋に！！朝はかなり寒いのでウルトラライトダウンを着てちょうどよかったです。
だいぶ長く船にいるので船酔い対策を！ただ。遠くを観ていると酔いません！
一生懸命探してください！

それでは良い旅を！

It was not stated were We would go to for the Manta Ray night time snorkle. We assumed it would be in front of the SheratonKona and were disappointed it was at the secondary location. We saw one manta Ray for about three seconds and that was it. I would highly recommend going to one that is in front of the SheratonKona because we got back to our hotel and we could see them from the restaurant there!

Overall the was a great time! The crew was great and did an excellent job with the underwater photography. Great pics and video!

Would recommend this adventure to anyone.

Be sure to bring dry clothes and towels

Excellent trip. Saw dolphins, fun time snorkeling, helpful crew.

It was a stable ride compared to a Cessna, providing a sense of security and comfort, making for a wonderful experience. The moment I realized the pilot was Toshi Mochizuki, my sense of reassurance and anticipation doubled.

Although the lava flow had stopped, we were able to get much closer to the crater, and the cliffs viewed from the sea were truly volcanic islands. I was greatly impressed along with the Canadian family who joined me.

セスナと比べて安定した乗り心地、安心快適、素敵な体験でした。パイロットが、望月TOSHIさんだとわかった瞬間、安心感･期待感がさらに倍増。
熔岩の流れはストップしてましたが、その分、火口にもぐんと近付け、海から見る岸壁も火山島そのもの、同乗したカナダ人家族と一緒に大感激したのでした。

Our driver was amazing! He kept up a running commentary on all the best places to eat, names of plants, celebrity houses, the works. He was always willing to answer questions no matter how stupid they sounded. He gave up plenty of info on the area we would be snorkeling in and the best parts of the reef to visit. He unfortunately did not have a pair of prescription goggles that I could use (I forgot to mention when booking) but he let me know I could rent a pair at the bay to ensure that I could see all the wonders below the ocean. He also had underwater cameras for purchase which was a bonus!!!

10/10 I would totally book transportation to go snorkeling with this company again.

I participated with my 7-year-old son.
While experiencing the nature and culture of Hawaii from the boat, we encountered three teachers: the dolphin, the whale, and the sea turtle.
My son was super excited by the whale teacher's splash.
We also met many of our favorite green sea turtle teachers.
We had a hard time finding the dolphin teacher, but we finally met just before returning to the harbor and swam with it, even though it was a bit far away.
Thanks to the staff, my son was able to experience all the activities.
I lack physical strength, but thanks to the staff, my son had an unforgettable experience.
I don't know when the next time will be, but I want to build my stamina for a re-enrollment at Dolphin University.

7歳の息子と二人で参加。
船上からのハワイの自然、文化に触れながら先生たちの元へ、
イルカ。クジラ。ウミガメ。三先生に出会えました。
クジラ先生のスプラッシュに息子大興奮。
大好きなアオウミガメ先生にもたくさんであいました。
イルカ先生にはなかなか会えず帰港間際に出会え、少々遠いながらも一緒にドルフィンスイム。
息子、アクティビティーもスタッフの皆様のおかげですべて体験できました。
私は体力がなくスタッフ皆様のおかげで息子が一生の思い出となる経験ができました。
次回はいつになるかわかりませんがイルカ大学再入学のために母は体力をつけたいと思います。

I attended with my two children, one in first grade and the other in fourth grade, and the staff provided support, allowing us to participate with peace of mind. After searching for a while, we were able to see many wild dolphins.

*I recommend motion sickness medication for those who are prone to seasickness.*

小1、小4の2人の子連れでしたが、スタッフの方々にも、サポートいただき安心して参加できました。しばらくイルカ探しした後、沢山の野生イルカに会えました。

※酔い易い方は酔い止めをお勧めします。

The sandbar didn't appear, and it was cold! If you're going in January, you might need to wear a wetsuit to enjoy it! Also, long sleeves and something to cover up are a must!

However, at the snorkeling spots, the cold disappeared, and I was able to observe the fish closely! The snorkeling staff were very kind and considerate, which was great!

Since the only drinks available were carbonated, if you're not a fan, it's better to bring your own water or tea! Also, for those with children, I recommend bringing something to eat for when they can't have a meal!

Participating in the tour became a wonderful memory thanks to the consideration of the guides!

サンドバーもあらわれず、寒いっ‼︎
1月に行かれる方はウェットスーツを着ないと楽しめないかも！あとは長袖と羽織るもの必須！
だけどもシュノーケルをするところでは、寒さがなくなり、魚をじっくり見れました！
シュノーケルの方々は凄く優しいですし、気遣ってくれてよかったです！
飲み物が炭酸しかないので苦手な方は水やお茶を持参した方がよいです！あとは子供連れの方は食べれない時に何か持っていくことをオススメします！
ツアー参加はツアーを案内してくれた方々の気遣いで良い思い出にはなりました！

I thought it was a sandbar, but the tide came in, and it turned into just a sandy shallow area. Given the season, it was cold just to have my feet in the water, so in the end, I went in the sea a bit and then waited on the boat. It should be mentioned in advance that this only happens during low tide, or that it will turn into a sandy shallow area.

サンドバーだと思ったら、潮が満ちて、単なる砂地の浅瀬になってた。季節柄、足だけ浸かってると寒いし、結局ちょっと海に入って後は船上で待機。引き潮の時に限るか、砂地の浅瀬になるということを事前に言っておくべき。

- The weather was cloudy, but when the sun broke through, the color of the sea changed dramatically and was beautiful.
- I participated in January, and it was very cold with strong winds. Warm clothing is a MUST.
- Reef shoes are convenient to have.
- I thought the prices were a bit high for what was offered.

・天気が曇っていたのですが、晴れ間が指したときに、海の色が一気に変わって綺麗でした。
・1月に参加しましたが、風が強く、非常に寒かったです。防寒着はMUSTです。
・リーフシューズがあると便利です
・料金については内容については少し高いかなと思いました

I experienced snorkeling with wild dolphins for the first time. I love snorkeling, but I was very scared of the deep water and couldn't jump in until the third round when it looked a bit shallower, so I gathered my courage and jumped in. Even though I was still scared, I swam, and I was moved to see a pod of dolphins swimming in the distance!

In the fourth round, I decided to watch from the boat, and to my surprise, a pod of about 30 to 40 dolphins lined up right below the boat (within reach!) and swam alongside us for a long distance! I was so amazed that I kept saying, "Incredible!!! Incredible!!!" The tour guide mentioned that they had been doing this for a year, but this was their first time experiencing something like this! They were also saying, "Incredible!!!" along with me!

I had my phone in the back of the boat, and I thought if I left the spot, the dolphins would swim away, so unfortunately, I couldn't take any pictures. But I had a wonderful and precious experience!!! Thank you very much!

初めての野生のイルカとシュノーケリングを体験しました。
私はシュノーケリングは大好きなのですが、深いところがとても怖く
2ラウンドまで怖くて飛び込めませんでしたが、3ラウンド目に少し浅瀬に見えたので、勇気を出して飛び込みました。それでも怖いながらもがんばって
泳いでいるとイルカの群れがが遠くの方で泳いでるのが見え感動でした！
4ラウンド目には船の上から見ることにして眺めていると
なんと！　30～40ぐらいのイルカの群れが船の私のいる真下の先頭に横一列になり（手が届きそうな距離）ずっと船頭してくれたのです！！！
結構な距離をずっとです！
感激過ぎてずっと　すごい！！！すごい！！！とゆうばかり！！！
ツアーの方も１年いますけど、こんな体験は初めてです！と言ってました。
その方も私と一緒にすごい！！！と言っていました！
舩の奥に携帯があったのでその場をたつとどこかへ行ってしまうと思い
写真は残念ながらとることができなかったのが残念です。
でも素晴らしい貴重な体験ができました！！！
ありがとうございました！

I compared various tours to the sandbar, and I was very satisfied with the experience. The tour included a sandbar visit, a hamburger lunch, sea turtle observation, and snorkeling points where I could enjoy the sea filled with many sea turtles, fish, and coral reefs.

サンドバーに行くツアーをいろいろ比較検討しましたが、サンドバー、ハンバーガーのランチ、海ガメ観察、スノーケリングポイントで海ガメや魚やサンゴ礁がたくさんの海を堪能できて、大満足でした。

Due to the large number of participants on the day of the tour, we were picked up by a large sightseeing bus. As a result, it didn't arrive at the meeting time, and I had to confirm by phone (the communication was in English, but they responded in simple English when I mentioned my name).

The air conditioning on the bus was very strong, and the airflow adjustment was broken. It would be better to have a light long-sleeve shirt.

When we arrived at the port, there was a toilet traffic jam, but they waited until the last person came out. (There are also toilets on the boat.) A very cheerful Black guide and a small, energetic Japanese guide provided explanations.

At the sandbar, there was a volleyball net set up, and we could play freely. It was a pity that there was only one ball...

Lunch was described as BBQ, but it was a hamburger made with meat patties grilled on the boat and served in a bun! It was quite filling, and if there were leftovers, you could get seconds!

We were able to see 7 to 9 sea turtles even in mid-January!

After snorkeling, warm drinks were provided, making it a very satisfying day.
*There is no place to change into swimsuits, so I recommend changing early on the boat's deck or in the restroom!

当日のツアー人数が多かったためなのか、大型の観光バスでのpickupでした。そのため集合時間になっても来ず、電話で確認しました（英語でののやり取りでしたが、名前を言うと簡単な英語で回答して下さいました。）

バスの中は冷房ガンガンで風量調整も壊れてました。薄手の長袖があるとベターです。

港に着くとトイレ渋滞が発生しましたが、最後の人が出てくるまで待ってくれます。（船にもトイレあります）
とても陽気な黒人ガイドさんと小柄で元気いっぱいの日本人ガイドさんが説明して下さいました。

サンドバーではバレーのネットが設置されており自由に遊ぶことができます。
ボールが1個しかなかったのが残念…。。

昼食はBBQと記載がありましたが、船で焼いたお肉のパティをパンで挟んで食べるハンバーガーでした！結構ボリュームもありましたが、余りがあればおかわりもできます‼︎‼︎

ウミガメは1月中旬でも7〜9匹見ることができました‼︎

シュノーケリング後、温かい飲み物も用意されており大満足の一日でした。
※水着を着替えるところはないので、船のデッキかトイレで早めに着替えることをお勧めします！

As I imagined, the sandbar was indeed affected by the weather... However, the staff members who joined us on the boat were very cheerful, and we were able to have a great time!

想像通り、サンドバーは天気に左右されるなぁと感じました…
でも、内容も一緒に船に乗ったスタッフの方々もとても明るい方々で楽しむことができました！

The crew was engaging in conversation the whole time, and it was lively and fun on the ship! They took many friendly photos with us in the sea, creating unforgettable memories! The BBQ that was prepared in advance was incredibly delicious, and I went back for seconds! I highly recommend participating!

クルーの皆さんが終始会話をして下さり船の中もワイワイと楽しかったです！海の中では気さくに写真もたくさん撮って頂き、一生に残る思い出が出来ました！あらかじめ焼いているBBQも凄く美味しくておかわりしました！ぜひ参加をおススメします！

I wasn't able to swim with the sea turtles, but I was really happy to see so many of them. The staff members were all very nice, and I had a great time. The hamburger for lunch was delicious, with the patty freshly grilled. The sandbar was shallow, about knee-deep. I would like to visit again during a time when the tide is completely out. I wasn't very lucky with the snorkeling, as the water was murky and not very clear, but I could see colorful fish and coral reefs quite well.

ウミガメと一緒に泳ぐまでは出来なかったがたくさん見れて嬉しかった。スタッフの方々も良い方ばかりで楽しめた。ランチのハンバーガーもパティ焼き立てで美味しかった。サンドバーは浅いところで膝くらい。完全に潮が引く時期にも行ってみたい。シュノーケルは運が悪かったのか水が濁っていてあまりキレイとは言えなかったがカラフルな魚やサンゴ礁はよく見えた。

It was rainy on the day, but I had a great time snorkeling! We played beach volleyball at the sandbar, and it was fun! The hamburgers for lunch were delicious, made with freshly grilled meat!

当日は雨模様でしたが、シュノーケリングも楽しめて最高でした！サンドバーでビーチバレーをしましたが楽しかったです！お昼のハンバーガーも焼きたてお肉でおいしかったです！

I read other people's comments before leaving my own. As everyone has mentioned, the staff's hospitality is amazing. Of course, the tour content is also fulfilling. It includes a variety of activities, delicious meals, and is undoubtedly a valuable tour. The staff enhances the experience with their thoughtful attention (they understand Japanese people well), making it even more enjoyable. Families with small children, young couples, and older individuals (like us!?) can all have a great time. It's no surprise that there are many repeat visitors. If given the opportunity, I would definitely like to participate again next time.

コメントするにあたりほかの方のコメントを読みました。
皆さんが書いてらっしゃる様にスタッフの方のホスピタリティーがすごい。
もちろんツアーの内容も充実しています。盛りだくさんのアクティビティ、おいしい食事と価値あるツアーであることはもちろんです。それをスタッフが繊細な心配り（日本人をよく理解している）で盛り上げてより楽しいものにしてくださいます。小さいお子さんを含む親子連れ、若いカップル、年配の方(私達か！？）どんな方も楽しめます。リピーターが多いのも納得。機会があれば次回もぜひ参加したいです。
